Default Bad time to start reloading short low pressure 10 gauge?

So I want to start hand loading short low pressure 10 gauge for my plain twist barreled lifter. Read through a lot of the threads on it. Seems a lot of components/materials are hard to get right now. What I have around my bench is:

- Ability to roll crimp 10 gauge

Hulls:
- 10ga Cheddite 3.5” primed w/cheddite 209 (can cut hull to size)

Powder:
- IMR Red
- IMR Blue
- Hodgdon Clays
- Hodgdon Universal Clays
- Hodgdon H110

Wads:
- 10ga (Hornady) Pacific Versalite (same as REM-SP10?)
- 10ga Precision XY12510 1/8” nitro cards (overpowder or as filler in shot cup)

Overshot cards:
- 10ga
- 12ga
- 16ga

But I can’t find a recipe to utilize these components.

Guess it’s time to roll a few up and send to Tom Ambrust for testing.

Anyone have any suggestions to begin with? Is one of these powders close to red dot? As I seem to see alot of red dot recipes. I did find an IMR Blue recipe but I need 16ga 1/4” fiber cards.
